Main Lodge and Gates to Minley Manor

The Main Lodge and Gates to Minley Manor, built between 1885 and 1888 by George Devey for BW Currie, are notable structures made of red brick in English bond, featuring diaper work, limestone dressings, and a slate roof.

The lodge and gates are aligned with the arched entrance at Arch Cottage, with the gates situated north of the orangery. The walls enclose part of the Minley Manor estate along Minley Road. The lodge is integrated into the wall on its north side and has a two-storey main section that runs perpendicular to the road, flanked by single-storey accommodations to the north and south. A screen wall extends from the lodge to the stables on the west.

The boundary walls create an entrance marked by square-section piers with stone bases and caps, one of which features a stone heraldic beast. The walls are decorated with diaper work and include a brick dentil course beneath shaped stone copings, with the walls sloping between the outer and inner piers.

From the road, the first-floor gable end of the lodge is visible above the wall, which forms its north-east elevation. This wall has mullioned windows with leaded glass, and the first floor features a two-light stone mullioned window set within an aedicular architrave, complete with pilasters and a semi-circular pediment topped with finials. The gable has a tall parapet with stone copings, heavy crockets, and a ball finial at the top.

Inside the manor grounds, the single-storey sections of the lodge are visible, showcasing similar detailing to the walls, including dentilled eaves and a coped parapet. The windows here are one, two, or three-light casements within chamfered stone mullioned architraves, featuring projecting moulded cills. The west gable has a pedimented two-light window, mirroring the design on the roadside elevation. A single-storey porch extends to the south, with the front door set back behind an elliptical arched architrave made of chamfered limestone. The rear doorways are topped with gauged brick arches.
